USING YOUR OVEN Before Using Your Oven 1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand how to set them properly. Read over the directions for the Oven Controls so you understand how to use them. 2. Check the oven interior. Look at the shelves. Take a practice run at removing and replacing them properly, to give sure, sturdy support.
en Shelves The shelves are designed with stop-locks so when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they will stop before coming completely out of the oven, and will not tilt when you are removing food from them or placing food on them. When placing cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf out to the bump on the shelf support.
BAKING Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. We recommend that you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar with your new oven's performance. If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust the Oven Thermostat section.
faking Pans Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the pan determines the amount of browning that will occur. • Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies. • Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting in a lighter, more delicate browning.
Aluminum Foil Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf several inches below the food.
How to Set Delay Start and Automatic Stop Quick Reminder: 1. Press the COOK TIME pad. 2. Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to set the Cooking Time. 3. Press the STOP TIME pad. 4. Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to set the Stop Time. 5. Press the BAKE pad.
ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT-- DO IT YOURSELF! You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. We recommend that you use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it, following the times given in your recipes as a guide.
ROASTING Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven. Rousting temperatures, which should be low and steady, keep spattering to a minimum. Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats. Therefore, oven controls are set for Baking or Timed Baking.
ROASTING (continued) Questions and Answers Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a meat thermometer? A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the completion of cooking time is recommended.
BROILING Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper broil element in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum. Turn the food only once during broiling.
BROILING GUIDE • Always use the broiler pan and rack that comes with your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping the juices in the shielded lower part of the pan. • The oven door should be open to the broil stop position.
OPERATING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN Normal Cleaning Time: 3 hours Before a Clean Cycle The oven must be completely cool in order to set the self-clean cycle. We recommend venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self- clean cycle.
